Call for Submissions

After a successful conference on "Uneven-aged silviculture: insights into forest adaptation in times of global change", organized by Research Groups 1.05.00 and 1.09.00, the European Journal of Forest Research has agreed to publish a "special section" for the meeting, titled "Uneven-aged silviculture: insights into forest adaptation in times of global change." Given interest in this topic, the journal editors have decided to make this special section open to manuscript submissions from anyone interested and conducting research on the topic (the special section is not restricted to scientists who presented at the conference).

When submitting manuscripts for this special section you will need to use the normal submission process and then indicate the manuscript belongs to the collection titled: Uneven-aged silviculture: insights into forest adaptation in times of global change.

Deadline for submission of manuscripts:  extended to 31 July 2024
